Fighting For Period Justice ft. Bushra Mahnoor
Why do we still shy away from talking about periods? What happens when an already stigmatised issue is made worse by climate disasters? And why do we still struggle with listening to those who are living through the crisis?
In today's episode host Anmol Irfan is joined by Bushra Mahnoor, a period rights activist, founder of Mahwari Justice, and winner of the Diana Award. For Bushra, period justice is a key part of achieving a gender just approach to the climate crisis, and she's been working from the grassroots up, all the way to a larger policy level to ensure that the change she hopes to see comes about
Through this unfiltered conversation around social stigmas and taboos, and women's health from the lens that it's often most ignored, Bushra challenges conceptions of what helping women really means on the ground. This episode is all about unlearning our preconceived notions around what women in vulnerable situations need and why the climate crisis is and never will be gender-blind.
